Chapter 10 Revenge
Gao Bufan was holding a grass stem in his mouth, lying on a grass slope in the shape of a "big" character, looking up at the night sky decorated with stars in a daze. The evening breeze was gently blowing, the coolness was heard everywhere, and the sound of insects was chirping, and occasionally one or two horse neighs came from the stables in the distance.
Gaoshou and Gao Ren were lying on both sides of Gao Bufan, who crossed their legs and also held a grass stem in their mouths. They were drowsy while chewing, while Gaoshou on the other side was snoring like thunder.
Gao Bufan sighed inwardly. His grandmother knew that these two tampers could not help. Raising two cows was more effective than them. At least the cows ate grass and milk, while these two guys ate rice, but they were all nonsense.
Gao Bufan has a free and generous personality. He doesn't value money and silver very much in his past life or in this life. In addition, since he traveled to the Sui Dynasty, his family was far from wealth, but he was still wealthy. At least he didn't have to worry about money and silver, so he never thought of using his time traveler's advantages to make money.
As a result, the family needed money to respond to the emergency, so they woke up and hugged. However, the tall young master searched all his dry intestines and couldn't come up with an idea that could quickly earn 3,000 taels of silver. Not to mention 3,000 taels, even 3,000 taels would not be possible, unless he stole or robbed!
As the saying goes, three cobblers can beat Zhuge Liang. So Gao Bufan took the idea of being a living horse and asked Gao Shou and Gao Ren to find a solution. As a result, it turned out that the three cobblers were always cobblers and could not become Zhuge Liang.
The night became deeper and the cooler became stronger. Gao Bufan looked up at the Big Dipper in the sky and said to himself: "The handle of the Dou is pointed to the west, and autumn is everywhere, autumn is here!"
The snoring on both sides stopped abruptly, Gao Ren suddenly sat up, rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked shamelessly: "What did the young master say just now? I was thinking too far and I couldn't hear it clearly!"
Gao Bufan said indifferently: "My master just asked, how did the pig die?"
"So stupid!" Gao Shou replied yawningly: "Hehe, the young master has asked this question before, it won't hurt me."
Gao Bufan raised his hand and gave the thrust to the thug, and said indifferently: "I've answered correctly, there's a prize!"
"Hahaha!" Gao Ren laughed gloatingly.
Gaoshou rubbed his painful numb head and said angrily: "Smile, I really think he looks handsome when he holds grass... Cough, Master, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about the second child, you look handsome when you hold grass, but this guy is so ugly that he can scare ten cows to death by him."
Gao Ren retorted: "We are raised by the same mother. I am ugly. How can you see it well? I'm spoiled!"
"Come on, you two should go back and take a shower and go to bed." Gao Bufan rubbed his buzzing Naoren and waved.
Seeing this, Gao Shou and Gao Ren did not dare to act rashly. The latter smiled flatteringly and said, "Master, three thousand taels of silver are not a small amount. How can we get so much money? Or... sell Qingyun?"
Qingyun is Gao Bufan's mount, very divine. It was a Turkic horse purchased by Gao Kaishan at Mayihua that year, worth 500 taels of silver. When he returned to Luoyang, the eastern capital, a wealthy businessman was willing to pay 100 taels of gold. Gao Kaishan did not agree to change his hand, but took it home to give it to his son Gao Bufan as his twelve-year-old birthday gift.
Gao Bufan also loves Qingyun very much. In order to cultivate a tacit understanding between people, for a while, he even lived and ate in the stable, and was inseparable from Qingyun every day. Now that he has been together for three years, Gao Bufan’s feelings for Qingyun are naturally deeper, so before he could speak, Gao Shou glared at Gao Ren and scolded: “Why don’t you say that you will sell you!”
Gao Ren spread his hands: "If I were as valuable as Qingyun, I would sell myself without the instructions of the young master."
"You think that your fat body is not as good as Qingyun's leg hair." Gao Shou said disdainfully.
Gao Ren was furious: "I always carry it with me. Do you want to practice it?"
"I'm afraid of you!" Gaoshou immediately rolled up his sleeves.
Seeing that the two live treasures were about to fight each other again, Gao Bufan walked down the grass slope very simply, without seeing it.
Gao Shou and Gao Ren looked at each other, and chased them down with their heads down. The former said embarrassedly: "Young Master, it's all our fault for being useless. Why don't you sell us? Maybe you can be worth a few taels of silver."
Gao Bufan nodded: "Okay, go into the city tomorrow."
Gao Shou and Gao Ren were instantly frightened, and the former wanted to slap themselves a big mouth, regretting their humble mouth, grandma, and they really can't say anything that is loyal!
…………
In the second half of the night, the sky suddenly changed its face. The night sky decorated with stars was covered with dark clouds. Then it started to rain heavily, and the water on the ground gathered into millions of streams and poured into the river.
The high chicken pole in the heavy rain was dark, and the endless reeds swayed wildly in the storm, and the water level was rising at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Deep in Gaojimo, under a slightly higher hill, there were continuous thatched huts being baptized by wind and rain. One of the huts was faintly leaking. On the water not far from the hut, more than a dozen wooden boats floated around like a masterless soul, colliding with each other, making a creepy clanging sound.
This is where Zhang Jin called this group of bandits’ nests!
At this time, I saw a lamp in the hut, illuminating everything yellow. Although there was a layer of reed stalks on the ground, it was still wet and muddy. The air was filled with the smell of sweat, feet, body odor and bad breath, which was disgusting.
The furnishings in the house were very simple, with a broken Eight Immortals table and several wet and moldy benches. The backbone of the bandits, who were called Zhang Jin, were sitting around, and each one was depressed, as if they had lost their mother. The boss Zhang Jinzheng's face was pale as paper. He was naked and had a bandage on his left shoulder, and blood was still oozing out.
Speaking of which, Zhang Jin said that he was hit by Changsun Sheng on the boat today. Although it was just a flesh-and-skin wound, when he dived and ran away, his wound was soaked in the water for a long time, and he almost killed him after losing blood.
The second in commander Sun Yan glanced at Zhang Jin carefully and said blaming himself: "It's all my fault for being careless today. He took action without knowing the identity of Fei Yang, resulting in the loss of six boats and dozens of brothers. Even the fifth, the seventh and the nineth brothers were also broken. I deserve to die. Please ask the boss to do it and give me an explanation to you brothers!"
After saying that, Sun Yan fell down on his knees, raised his sword in his hands to Zhang Jin and said that the other bandits present immediately focused their eyes on the latter, with different expressions.
Zhang Jin said that he was really angry at this moment. He didn't get a single slap today, but instead lost one-third of the people. This transaction was a big loss. The second leader Sun Yan had an unshirkable responsibility. However, Zhang Jin said that there were few people around him, and Sun Yan was even more of his left arm and right arm. If he killed it with one knife, then there would be no one around him.
Zhang Jincheng pondered for a moment and slowly took the knife of the second head of the house. The others in the house immediately held their breath. Although the second head of the house pretended to be calm, there was cold sweat on his forehead.
Chih...
Zhang Jincheng turned his wrist, but saw the light of the sword flashing violently, and the single sword was completely penetrated into the soil in front of the second head of the house. The latter's body stiffened and almost fell to the ground. Everyone present was relieved, but only the third head of the house Wei Sheng flashed a trace of disappointment.
Zhang Jincheng reached out to help the second head up and comforted him with a smile: "Brother Sun, get up quickly, the people below are not doing their jobs well, why do you have to take all the blame on yourself? What's more, if someone makes mistakes, who can guarantee that he will not make any mistakes?" As he said that, his eyes swept over the others present, and the third head Wei Sheng lowered his head sternly.
Sun Yan couldn't help but burst into tears, and the bandits praised the boss for his kindness and wiseness. Zhang Jin said that he was naturally very satisfied with this. The reason why he was able to become the leader of the bandits was not only because of his high martial arts skills, but also because he was good at winning people's hearts!
"The boss, if it weren't for that black guy meddling in other people's business today, we might not have lost. The fifth brother died at his hands. This revenge must be avenged!" Wei Sheng, the third boss, said in a deep voice.
As soon as this statement was made, the bandits instantly shared their hatred for the enemy and expressed their desire to avenge them!
Zhang Jin said in a cold voice: "This revenge is naturally avenged. The second brother, I will send someone out to inquire tomorrow. Be sure to find out the origin of the black boy. I want to kill his whole family to eliminate the hatred in my heart."
Sun Yan immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, boss, even if I dig three feet into the ground, I will dig out the black boy and avenge Lao Wu and the others."
Zhang Jinsheng nodded: "That kid has a local accent and two servants dressed in his side. He probably has a good family background and it should not be difficult to find one. Let's first read the rich families in our Zhangnan County."
The second head Sun Yan quickly said that although the boss had forgiven his mistakes, there were so many brothers who died this time, and it was hard to guarantee that no one would secretly resent him. Therefore, it would be better if he could transfer hatred to the nosy black boy.
Moreover, the black boy's family seemed to be in a good position. As long as he was dug out and slaughtering the whole family, he would not only help the brothers quell their resentment, but also gain a considerable amount of money!
Why not do such a good thing?
